HEMPSTEAD, N.Y. (AP) — A man accused of bludgeoning his mother, sister and another woman to death after being kicked out of his home on New York's Long Island is headed to court.Suffolk County police say Vanderhall had a history of emotional problems, and his mother had gotten a protective order against him and had thrown him out of their Hempstead home.

TOKYO (AP) — An underwater robot captured images of solidified lava-like rocks Friday inside a damaged reactor at Japan's crippled Fukushima nuclear plant, spotting for the first time what is believed to be nuclear fuel that melted six years ago.Cameras mounted on the robot showed extensive damage caused by the core meltdown, with fuel debris mixed with broken reactor parts, suggesting the difficult challenges ahead in the decades-long decommissioning of the destroyed plant.Experts have said the fuel melted and much of it fell to the chamber's bottom and is now covered by radioactive water as deep as 6 meters (20 feet).Kimoto said the robot probe in its two missions has captured a great deal of useful information and images showing the damage inside the reactor, which will help experts eventually determine a way to remove the melted fuel, a process expected to begin sometime after the 2020 Tokyo Olympics.The search for melted fuel in the two other reactors has so far been unsuccessful because of damage and extremely high radiation levels.

[...] it’s there that we reunite with fledgling poet and future cult filmmaking legend Alejandro Jodorowsky (played by his adult son, Adan Jodorowsky), in the director’s latest look back at his own life, the wonderfully strange “Endless Poetry.”In one sequence, father and teenage Alejandro brawl during an earthquake, in another, the defiant adolescent recites the poetry of Federico García Lorca out loud — a habit the patriarch despises and forbids — while a vision of Jaime’s enormous, disembodied head floats nearby, angrily shouting an abusive gay slur.Described as “super-tenors”, “ultra-pianists,” “poly-painters,” and “symbiotic dancers,” it’s a bohemian Modernist clubhouse of misfits and strivers, the sort of comrades whose intensity requires a complementary, oppositional energy from every other member of the group.Into a bar staffed with old men dressed in black walks poet Stella Diaz (Flores again, in a dual role), who appears to have been beamed in from the future, an almost proto-punk rock figure in extreme makeup and bright red wig.The character of “Pierrot” — a sad, pantomime clown dating back to the 17th century — darts in and out of the action, a stand-in for Jodorowsky’s self-perception (at one point he gets a job in a circus as a clown who farts for laughs), the holy fool at the center of an absurd life.Parental bonds are destroyed and religion’s shackles broken; literal fires consume the past; sex and blood and cruelty form complicated bonds; demons and death conduct a fantasy street parade; and broken friendships shake Alejandro loose of his home so that he can, finally, leave everything behind.
